As mentioned before, the playoffs have returned to the system we have before. For our fifth year, we're scaling back to six playoffs teams instead of eight. This should prevent teams with losing records from getting into the playoffs, which has happened in the two years of eight teams in.
The top team in each conference will get the BYE and we'll have the Wild Card round Week 14. The conference championships will be Week 15, followed by Fantasy Super Bowl V in Week 16.
Conference breakdown: The team with the best record in the conference will be the No. 1 seed. The other division winner will automatically be the No. 2 seed and the next best team will get the final playoff seed.
The tiebreakers are the same as they were last year:
For conferences: Overall record, head-to-head, conference record, division record, points, points against, coin flip.
For divisions: Overall record, head-to-head, division record, conference record, points, points against, coin flip.
For playoff games that somehow end in tie: Total points gathered by the seven key positions (take away kicker & defense points); total points gathered by QB, top RB, top WR; total points gathered by QB & top RB; total points by QB; total bench points; highest seed. (Note: top RB and top WR is defined by the higher scoring RB or WR that weekend. If your TE/WR position, which could be a TE, scores the most, a TE can be considered the top WR.)
